I got a fancy Cuchen rice cooker and it highlights that it uses fuzzy logic to cook rice. I generally understand the concept of fuzzy logic, but I don’t see how that makes better rice. Shouldn’t there just be standard settings for every kind of rice and some senaors of time, pressure, temperature, and moisture that tell the machine when it is done? Why does the flexibility of fuzzy logic help?

Wild guess: Based on a set of inputs (time spent cooking, rice temp, ambient temp, humidity, etc) if the output value of the formula using all these inputs passed 80% or perhaps if the value remains above 75% for 5 min … then the rice is done.
Truely, there is no clear reason. I’m also suspicious of their use of the term “fuzzy logic”. Everything has a microcontroller and sensors these days … it’s just “what is the logic” it’s using to determine if the rice is cooked?
